An ox goad, also known as an ox stick or cattle prod, is a long pole with a pointed or flattened metal tip used to guide and control oxen or cattle when plowing fields or pulling heavy loads. The ox goad is typically made of wood, bamboo, or metal and can range in length from a few feet to several meters.
The pointed tip of the ox goad is used to gently prod the animal to move in a certain direction or increase its speed, while the flattened end can be used to tap or signal commands. The ox goad is an essential tool for farmers and herders who rely on oxen or cattle for work or transport.
In some cultures, the ox goad has symbolic significance as a tool of authority or leadership. In Christianity, the ox goad is mentioned in the Bible as a metaphor for the power of God to direct and guide believers in the right path.
